I'm Glad My Mom Died by Jennette McCurdy

5.0

---

I’m not the biggest fan of nonfiction so I tend to stay away from memoirs and biographies. I remember being a massive fan of Jennette McCurdy as a child and I knew I had to give this book a chance (especially after it sold out the day it was released). I am genuinely shocked at how interested I was in this book! I thought I would have to force myself into completing it, but I couldn’t put it down! The way it’s written almost feels like you’re having a conversation with Jennette herself. Her story was absolutely heartbreaking - there was a whole other side of her life that we didn’t get to see before, and I am so glad that she finally got the chance to tell us her story.
